As a Sox fan, I hated to see him go. However, he is hitting better than I expected him to. It is also a contract year. I expect him to do pretty well with that lineup. I am kind of upset I couldn't pick him up but oh well.

So only 12 HR and 11 Sb the rest of the season? Sounds a bit pesimistic to me.

Yes he could and with a .300 BA to boot. A very under rated player in drafts this year.

Agreed. Guess that's why I ended up with him in most of my leagues.
